The active harnessing of quantum resources in engineered quantum devices poses unprecedented requirements on device control. Besides the residual interaction with the environment, causing environment-induced decoherence, uncontrolled parameters in the system itself -- disorder -- remains as a substantial factor limiting the precision and thus the performance of devices. These perturbations may arise, for instance, due to imperfect sample production, stray fields, or finite accuracy of control electronics. Disorder-dressed quantum evolution means a unifying framework, based on quantum master equations, to analyze how these detrimental influences cause deviations from the desired system dynamics. This description may thus contribute to unveiling and mitigating disorder effects towards robust schemes. To demonstrate the broad scope of this framework, we evaluate two distinct scenarios: a central spin immersed in an isotropic spin bath, and a random mass Dirac particle. In the former scenario, we demonstrate how the disorder average reflects purity oscillations, indicating the time- and state-dependent severity of the disorder impact. In the latter scenario, we discuss disorder-induced backscattering and disorder-induced Zitterbewegung as consequences of the breakup of spin-momentum locking.

Quantum coherences are paramount resources for applications, such as quantum-enhanced light-harvesting or quantum computing, which are fragile against environmental noise. We here derive generalized quantum master equations using perturbation theory in order to describe the effective ensemble-averaged time-evolution of finite-size quantum systems subject to static noise on all time scales. We then analyse the time-evolution of the coherences under energy broadening noise in a variety of systems characterized by both short and long-range interactions, by strongly correlated and fully uncorrelated noise -- a single qubit, a lattice model with on-site disorder and a potential ladder, and bosons in a double-well potential with random interaction strength -- and show that couplings can partially protect the system from the ensemble-averaging induced loss of coherence. Our work suggests that suitably tuned couplings could be employed to counteract part of the dephasing detrimental to quantum applications. Conversely, tailored noise distributions can be utilized to reach target non-equilibrium quantum states.
We analyze the disorder-perturbed transport of quantum states in the absence of backscattering. This comprises, for instance, the propagation of edge-mode wave packets in topological insulators, or the propagation of photons in inhomogeneous media. W e quantify the disorder-induced dephasing, which we show to be bound. Moreover, we identify a gap condition to remain in the backscattering-free regime despite disorder-induced momentum broadening. Our analysis comprises the full disorder-averaged quantum state, on the level of both populations and coherences, appreciating states as potential carriers of quantum information. The well-definedness of states is guaranteed by our treatment of the nonequilibrium dynamics with Lindblad master equations.
We present fresh evidence for the presence of discrete quantum time crystals in two spatial dimensions. Discrete time crystals are intricate quantum systems that break discrete time translation symmetry in driven quantum many-body systems undergoing non-equilibrium dynamics. They are stabilized by many-body localization arising from disorder. We directly target the thermodynamic limit using instances of infinite tensor network states and implement disorder in a translationally invariant setting by introducing auxiliary systems at each site. We discuss how such disorder can be realized in programmable quantum simulators: This gives rise to the interesting situation in which a classical tensor network simulation can contribute to devising a blueprint of a quantum simulator featuring pre-thermal time crystalline dynamics, one that will yet ultimately have to be built in order to explore the stability of this phase of matter for long times.
We explore experimentally a quantum metamaterial based on a superconducting chip with 25 frequency-tunable transmon qubits coupled to a common coplanar resonator. The collective bright and dark modes are probed via the microwave response, i.e., by me asuring the transmission amplitude of an external microwave signal. All qubits have individual control and readout lines. Their frequency tunability allows to change the number N of resonantly coupled qubits and also to introduce a disorder in their excitation frequencies with preassigned distributions. While increasing N, we demonstrate the expected $N^{1/2}$ scaling law for the energy gap (Rabi splitting) between bright modes around the cavity frequency. By introducing a controllable disorder and averaging the transmission amplitude over a large number of realizations, we demonstrate a decay of mesoscopic fluctuations which mimics an approach towards the thermodynamic limit. The collective bright states survive in the presence of disorder when the strength of individual qubit coupling to the cavity dominates over the disorder strength.
We analyze the propagation of quantum states in the presence of weak disorder. In particular, we investigate the reliable transmittance of quantum states, as potential carriers of quantum information, through disorder-perturbed waveguides. We quantif y wave-packet distortion, backscattering, and disorder-induced dephasing, which all act detrimentally on transport, and identify conditions for reliable transmission. Our analysis relies on the treatment of the nonequilibrium dynamics of ensemble-averaged quantum states in terms of quantum master equations.
